Enrollment Rights

    1. McKinney-Vento Enrollment: Education Without Barriers

      Enrolling in school is a fundamental right, regardless of your housing situation. Under the federal McKinney-Vento Act and California state law, you are guaranteed enrollment in school if you face uncertain housing, have a temporary address, or lack a permanent address.

      Who is Eligible: You have the right to enroll in school if you find yourself living in any of the following circumstances:

      • In a shelter, whether it's a family, domestic violence, youth shelter, or transitional living program.
      • In a motel, hotel, or weekly rate housing.
      • In a house or apartment with more than one family due to economic hardship or loss.
      • In an abandoned building, car, campground, or on the street.
      • In temporary foster care or under the care of an adult who is not your parent or guardian.
      • In substandard housing without electricity, water, or heat.
      • With friends or family because you are a runaway or an unaccompanied youth.

      What You Don't Need to Provide: Enrolling in school under these conditions does not require you to provide:

      • Proof of residency.
      • Immunization records or tuberculosis skin-test results.
      • School records.
      • Legal guardianship papers.

      Your Rights and Benefits: Upon enrolling under McKinney-Vento, you're entitled to the following:

      • Full participation in all eligible school activities and programs.
      • Continued attendance at your previous school, even if you've moved away from its attendance zone or district.
      • Transportation from your current residence back to your school of origin.
      • Automatic qualifications for child nutrition programs, including free and reduced-price lunches.
      • Access to the district liaison for resolving any disputes during the enrollment process  

        We believe that education should never be hindered by housing challenges. The McKinney-Vento Act ensures that every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. Contact us today to explore your educational options and embark on a journey of empowerment through education.

    Together, we're breaking down barriers to education.
